Oceanographer The Hardest Thing To Say lyrics

The hardest thing to say is, "I am not okay."
A storm is coming quick and the captain's got the shakes.
The crew down to a man has done the best they can
but still the waters rise, and there's still no sign of land.

But I am thankful to be with you
vessels made of muscle, bone and blood and tissue
on a ship awaiting rescue.

The hardest thing to say is, "Yes, I am afraid."
The walls are see-through thin and there's natives at the gates.
I'm watching as the stars are covered up in clouds.
The moon is getting dark, the wind is getting loud.


But I am thankful to be with you
vessels made of muscle, bone and blood and tissue
on a ship awaiting rescue.

The hardest thing to say is,
"I will lead you into darkness if you let me.
I'd bet the earth and sky that someday you'll regret me.
Guns ablaze and eyes on fire with my mistakes worn on my sleeve."

It's the hardest thing to say.
